The problem with this service (or others like it) is the next eventual step is making your private snaps you've saved with the service public.

Snapchat itself faces the same problem. They are sitting the greatest trove of amateur porn ever, and eventually they need to figure out how to make money.

If you know everyone's social graph and you use sneaky ways of identifying people even when they are using different computers or using the private/incognito mode of browsers (which is definitely technologically possible) then perhaps it would be possible to serve up "private" erotic photographs only to a subset of users who are maximally disconnected from the people in the photographs.

I wonder how long you could get away with pulling off something like that if you were as sneaky as possible.

Also the greatest trove of child porn.
